Definitions

  • backwards compatibility When new computer architecture is released it is desirable for the applications written for a previous version of the architecture to run flawlessly on the new architecture. This capability is often referred to as "backwards compatibility.”
  • Backwards compatibility involves emulating a target legacy device on the new host architecture so that the new architecture can execute the instructions of programs written for the legacy.
  • Computer architectures change over time to take advantage of technological advances in busses, clock speed, processor architecture, caching, standards, etc.
  • the older architecture becomes what is called a legacy architecture.
  • Over the course of its development software applications, such as network protocols, user interfaces, audio processing, device drivers, graphics processing, messaging, word processors, spreadsheets, database programs, games, and other applications are written for a legacy architecture.
  • Such legacy software still has value to its users even if they upgrade to a new architecture. A need therefore exists to be able to run legacy software on the new architecture.
  • Differences in performance of the hardware components of a new device and a legacy device can cause errors in synchronization on the new device, which may cause a legacy application to crash when running on a new device architecture. Such differences in performance can arise, e.g., from differences in bus architecture between the new and legacy devices.
  • a bus architecture provides multiple data paths between different device components.
  • a legacy device and a new device can have different bus paths between device components with different constraints on timing and data transfer rates between device components. For example, if a bus path between two components of the new device is faster than a corresponding bus path between these components on the legacy device data still being used by one component may be prematurely overwritten by another component.
  • the new device may throttle bus performance in a way that emulates the bus behavior of a legacy device when executing the legacy application.
  • Bus throttling on the new system may be based on estimated bandwidth allocations determined from behavior of the legacy bus.
  • Bus traffic may be throttled by limiting the amount of available bus bandwidth allocated for particular bus transactions according to amounts estimated from the legacy bus behavior.
  • the bus traffic is throttled so that the new device allocates at least as much bandwidth as would have been allocated by the legacy system, but not so much more that synchronization errors arise in execution of a legacy application.
  • the throttling can be tuned while running legacy applications on the new device to determine how much additional bandwidth allocation causes problems with execution.
  • FIG. 1 shows an example a new device configured to account for differences in bus architecture between a legacy device and the new device when running applications written for the legacy device.
  • the new device may include a multicore CPU and a multicore GPU coupled to a common memory 106 and I/O access controller 108.
  • Each CPU or GPU core is coupled to a level 2 cache 110 and bus interface unit 112 via backside buses (BSBi, BSB 2 ).
  • the level 2 cache 110 is coupled to the memory 106 and I/O access controller 108 by a frontside bus (FSB).
  • Additional memory not shown
  • peripheral devices 114, video 116, and data storage devices 118 interface with the CPU and GPU through the access controller by various busses.
  • the CPU and GPU may include configurable registers 105 for temporary storage of data and/or instructions.
  • a legacy version of the device in FIG. 1 might have a different architecture, e.g., one in which there are separate busses for the CPU and GPU and in which there are separate controllers for memory and I/O access.
  • the access controller 108 throttles bus performance to emulate legacy bus behavior and maintain synchronization when executing legacy applications, e.g., by executing code instructions 103 stored in the memory 106.
  • the access controller throttles 108 bus traffic on the various busses BSB 1 , BSB 2 , FSB by allocating available bus bandwidth in a way that emulates the behavior of the bus in a legacy device.
  • the throttling is informed by bus performance data for the legacy device. To generate this data the legacy device may be tested while running a legacy application. Bus bandwidth allocations for different bus clients are measured under different conditions.
  • Factors that might affect bandwidth allocated for a specific bus transaction include the specific bus clients that are accessing the bus (e.g., CPU 102 or GPU 104), the source or destination (e.g., memory 106) for data transmitted over the bus, whether data is being read or written, whether the transaction has a high or low priority, the amount of bandwidth being requested, which other bus clients are competing for bus bandwidth, etc. All of these factors may be recorded during testing of the legacy device along with the bus bandwidth allocations.
  • the new device uses a lookup table stored in memory 106 or configurable registers 105 to allocate bandwidth between nodes under different bus traffic conditions.
  • Table I shows allocated bandwidth between clients A and B based on measured performance (i.e., bus bandwidth allocation) for the legacy device.
  • Table I Bandwidth Requested by Client A 0 10 20 30 Bandwidth Requested By Client B 0 0/0 0/10 0/20 0/30 10 10/0 10/10 10/20 8/22 20 20/0 20/10 15/15 12/18 30 30/0 25/5 20/10 15/15
  • the allocated bandwidth for given requested bandwidths is denoted A/B where A is the bandwidth allocated to client A and B is the bandwidth allocated to client B.
  • the values in Table I may be determined by monitoring the bus bandwidth allocation of the legacy device during normal operation with legacy applications. A number of factors other than requested bandwidth may affect the bandwidth allocation, e.g., whether the bandwidth is requested for read or write operations, the relative priority of A's and B's requests. The table may take these factors into account.
  • the ratio approach is similar to the table-driven approach, except that the table stored in memory 106 or configurable registers 105 would specify bandwidth allocations in terms of ratios.
  • Table II shows the bandwidth requests and allocations in terms of percentages of the maximum available bus bandwidth. Table II Bandwidth Requested by Client A 0% 33% 67% 100% Bandwidth Requested By Client B 0% 0:0 0:33% 0:67% 0:100% 33% 33%:0 33%:33% 33%:67% 27%:73% 67% 67%:0 67%:33% 50%:50% 40%:60% 100% 100%:0 80%:20% 67%:33% 50%:50%
  • the table or ratio approach may be expanded to three, four or more dimensions to accommodate three, four or more different bus clients. Also, if there are multiple different busses serving different groups of clients, the table or ratio may take this into account.
  • the heuristic approach uses a computer model 201 of the legacy bus behavior to determine bandwidth allocation.
  • FIG. 2 shows an example.
  • the heuristic receives inputs regarding current bus traffic, bandwidth requested, client(s) requesting bandwidth, destination for traffic, etc..
  • the inputs are the bandwidth requests 202, 204 from client A and client B, respectively.
  • the heuristic then models the behavior of the bus paths between clients A and B, the bus arbitration 206, etc. using data 208 regarding the behavior of the legacy bus under the same or similar circumstances.
  • the legacy bus behavior data may be stored in a local memory for quick access by the heuristic.
  • the modeling takes into account the bandwidth requests, current bus conditions, and the legacy bus data into account to determine estimated bus bandwidth allocations for client A and client B.
  • a bus controller e.g., bus interface 112 can use these allocations to throttle the bus traffic.
  • the table, ratio, and heuristic approaches are more concerned with how legacy bus bandwidth is allocated under given circumstances than why.
  • Legacy bus bandwidth arbitration could depend on whether data is being read from or written to the client, whether the transaction has a high or low priority, the amount of bandwidth being requested, etc. If the legacy bus bandwidth allocations are sufficiently predictable they can be replicated with the table, ratio or heuristic approach.
  • bus clients A, B could self-throttle.
  • each bus client could include a widget 109 that looks at the bus traffic to determine whether it would have been asking the legacy system for more bandwidth than it could handle and would hold back on the request until it determines that sufficient bandwidth would have been available.
  • Each of these widgets could access a table, ratios, or a heuristic stored in configurable registers 111.
